I know folks who use a mixture of crushed bay leaves and a little vinegar, steeped overnight and then added to alcohol to make a spray, doesn't smell the best, but they say it works.
Here is another recipe I found:
2 1/2 teaspoons total of the following essential oils in equal parts or in any combination: basil, juniper, palmarosa, citronella, rose geranium, rosemary, myrrh, cedarwood, pine and lemon
1 cup 190-proof grain alcohol, available in liquor stores
Stir the oils into the grain alcohol.
Pour the solution into small bottles with tight-fitting caps.
I think any combination of aromatic oils tend to do something....
